BOILER INSTALLATION

Litho in U.S.A. © Laars Heating Systems 0603

(Sales, Service)

Mount the boiler to the wall with the paper template provided with the boiler itself, and following the instructions
given in the boiler manual. Use the heating delivery and return fittings (see fittings legend) on the rear of the boiler
and move the G 1” blind caps on the horizontal fittings (external boiler coil fittings).

There must be a free space of at least 55 inches underneath the boiler.

ASSEMBLY

Install the kit pipes and accessories as given in the diagram
in figures 2, 3 and 5.
Mount the manifolds to the wall with suitable brackets (the
pipes weigh 20 kg).
Install the safety valve, provided in the boiler, to its fitting (ref. 1
Figure 3) with the G 3/4” elbow. Mount the safety valve outlet
to a siphon drain pipe.
The expansion vessel (not supplied with the kit) must be dimensioned
for the overall capacity of the installation in the normal
way, and connected to the check valve (ref. 2 Figure 3).
The low loss header supplied with the hydronic package separates
the heating plant circulation so as to keep a constant flow of water
in the boiler independently of losses of load (ref. 3 Figure 3).
The pump supplied with the kit pumps the water between the
boiler and the manifolds.
The kit includes boiler delivery and return shut-off valves which
enables the system to be worked on without having to empty
out the entire heating system.

BOILER CIRCULATOR – ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The circulator power cable (included in the kit) connects to terminals (11) and (12) of boiler terminal block M3, which
can be accessed by opening the front panel (see the boiler instruction manual).

MULTI-HEADER KIT FOR MASCOT HT-1.450 & HT-1.650

FOR CONNECTING BOILERS IN A CASCADE

The following instructions are essential for the correct installation of the kit.

The Multi header kit enables quick installation of a cascade of wall–mounted Mascot HT 1.450 &
HT 1.650 boilers by providing the following plumbing accessories:

- Delivery/return manifolds

- Delivery shut-off valve (two way)

- Return shut-off valve (two way)

- Check valve

- Circulator

- Elbow for safety valve

- Gaskets: G 2 1/2” - G 1 1/2” – G 1” - G 3/4”

- Blind caps G 2 1/2” – G 1 1/2” – G 3/4”
The safety valve 30 p.s.i. (2.1 bar) is supplied with the boiler.

Each boiler to be installed requires a separate kit (we recommend not exceeding a maximum of eight boilers in a single cascade).

Mount the boiler to the wall with the paper template provided with the boiler itself, and following the
instructions given in the boiler manual. Use the heating delivery and return fittings (see fittings legend) on
the rear of the boiler and move the G 1” blind caps on the horizontal fittings (external boiler coil fittings).

Proceed as follows:

- Free space of at least 47.25 inches underneath the boiler

- Boiler spacing 31.5 inches (free space between boilers 7.8 inches).

Install the kit pipes as given in the diagram in figure 2.
Mount the manifolds to the wall with suitable brackets (the pipes weigh 21 kg per boiler).
The main manifolds must be connected by tightening the G 2 1/2” nuts with a wrench of at least 600 mm length. Use a pipe with a G
1 1/2” fitting screwed onto one of the two free fittings on the male collector to stop it turning while doing so.
Install the safety valve, provided in the boiler, to its fitting (ref. 1 Figure 3) with the G 3/4” elbow.
Mount the safety valve outlet to a siphon drain pipe.
The expansion vessel (not supplied with the kit) must be dimensioned for the overall capacity of the installation in the normal way,
and connected to one of the fittings on the return manifolds (ref. 2 Figure 3).
We recommend dividing up the required total capacity by installing an expansion vessel to the G 3/4” fittings of each boiler (ref. 3
Figure 3) on the return connections (in this case, do not use the G 3/4” cap).

The heating system must be separated hydraulically from the delivery and return manifolds with a hydraulic separator (G 2 1/2”
fittings). The pump supplied with the kit pumps the water between the boiler and the manifolds.

The G 2 1/2” caps install on the terminating section of the left most boiler.
The G 1 1/2” caps install on the free fittings of each manifold.

The G 3/4” cap installs on the free boiler return fitting (if the expansion vessel is not installed on this fitting).
The kit includes boiler delivery and return shut-off valves which enable the system to be worked on without having to empty out the
entire heating system, as well as allowing any single boiler to be isolated from the cascade.

LP Conversion for Mascot HT 3.30 & HT 1.33 / HT 1.450 & HT 1.650

The following operations must be performed before calibrating the gas valve.

1. For the HT 3.30 & HT 1.330 turn the adjuster screw (V) (2.5mm hex) on the gas valve clockwise four
complete revolutions. For the HT 1.450,turn the adjuster screw three complete revolutions, and for
the HT 1.650, five complete revolutions.

2. On the QAA73 remote control, remove the back cover and connect two field supplied thermostat wires to the

black terminal block. These wires are then connected to terminals 4 and 5 of the boiler terminal strip (inside
control compartment). For HT 3.30 & HT 1.330 set parameters 608 to 35% and parameter 611 to

3700 rpm. For HT 1.450, leave

Calibration mode:

Proceed as follows to enter “calibration mode” on the boiler control panel and calibrate the gas value.

1. Turn the Mascots control knobs 6 and 7 (figure 26) fully counter-clockwise to their minimum positions as
shown in figure 28A.

2. Starting in this position, quickly turn control knob 7 twice consecutively clockwise through about a ¼ turn as
shown in figure 28B.

Fig. 26

Note: LEDs 2 and 3 (figure 29) flash alternately and the display alternates the message “SF” and the
boiler output temperature about every five seconds (figure 29).

3. Now turn knob 6 to adjust fan speed to a setting between minimum thermal power (0%) and maximum
power (100%).

Note: In “calibration mode”, the display alternates between the message “P” and the boiler output
temperature about every 5 seconds. (figure 30).

4. Calibration mode remains active for 20 minutes. To exit “calibration mode” before this time simply turn
control knob 7.

Note: This function is interrupted if the central heating delivery temperature reaches its MAX.
SETPOINT.

Proceed as follows to calibrate the gas valve.

1. Insure your combustion analyzer is set to LPG, insert probe into flue opening on top of boiler, after removing
either of the two ¼ turn plugs.

2. Calibrate maximum thermal power by turning knob 6 clockwise to max. With the boiler operating at max
output, check the value for CO2 measured in the flue to 10.0 CO2. If necessary, turn the adjustment screw
(V) (2.5 mm hex) on the gas valve. Turn clockwise to reduce the CO2 level or counter-clockwise to
increase it.

3. Calibrate minimum thermal power. With boiler operating at minimum output by turning knob 6 counter­clockwise to minimum setting. Check the CO2 value measured in the flue to 9.8 CO2. If necessary adjust
screw (K) (4 mm hex) on the gas valve. Turn clockwise to increase the CO2 level or counter-
clockwise to reduce it.

Note: Allow time between adjustments for your combustion analyzer to sense the adjusted CO2 level.

The boiler is now ready for normal operation using LP gas and can be returned to the service mode by
turning control knob 7.
